How do I make a POST request using Axios in React Native?

To make a POST request using Axios in React Native, you first need to install Axios. You can do this by running npm install axios.

What does the POST request look like in code?

Here's a simple example:

import axios from 'axios';

const postData = async () => {
  try {
    const response = await axios.post('https://example.com/api/data', {
      key: 'value'
    });
    console.log(response.data);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
  }
};

How do I handle errors in the POST request?

You can handle errors using a try-catch block, as shown in the example. The catch block will log any errors that occur during the request.

Can I send headers with my POST request?

Yes, you can send headers by adding a third argument to the axios.post method:

const response = await axios.post('https://example.com/api/data', data, {
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer token'
  }
});
